Pollack Family Nellie Gail: Laguna Hill Portrait Photographer

One lucky little girl in Laguna Hills got a big surprise from her Mom and Dad…. a beautiful new pony.  I had the honor of the first family photo session with the new addition!  Now, I am a dog person at heart and have not had much interaction with horses, but I have to say that I fell in love with this beauty.  All of the horses were camera hogs and really wanted to get into the action.   Seriously, they all have such unique personalities, I was amazed.

As for the family, I love how natural all of the portraits from the session came out.  The kids and the rest of the family were really enjoying the interaction with the entire stable.   Enjoy!

My Favorite Family: Laguna Beach Family Photographer

Okay, I know it is bias to say this is my “favorite” family, but I really, really love them.  Jan and I share the same ethnicity (Jan I know you know what I am talking about).  I think everyone has a friend that you think, “if only my kids can grow up as great as her kids, I will be able to say I am successful as a parent” (in this case the oldest two kids… as her youngest is the same age as my son, but fabulous in her own rite :))  The best part of the session was that not only did I photograph John and Jan’s immediate family, I also got to work with all the extended family (who, by the way, are also fabulous people).  I hope you enjoy the portraits as much as I enjoyed shooting them!!!!

Fusillo Family Shoot 2011 – Venice Beach and Laguna Beach

Happy Friday everyone!  I just had to share my family shoot for 2011 that Kristin did.  As always, the girl did a stellar job.  We had so much fun in Venice and Laguna Beach with her.  Even though my little man was not in a picture-taking mood {the kid is 2 and has his own ideas on what we should be doing on a Saturday morning…..so stubborn…..I have no idea where he gets that from….. ;) }, Kristin was still able to get some great shots of him as well as everyone else.  It helps that she has killer skills and speed with that camera of hers.  Thank you Kristin for the great pics!  Now I can get cracking on our Holiday Cards!

Winston Family Beach Session: Laguna Beach Family Photography

One of the last times I saw this family, was when their oldest daughter was having a birthday party at Blue Sky’s Salon and Studio!  Wow, it was so crazy to see how grown up she has become.  It feels like only yesterday I was dressing up in a princess costume and hosting 6-10 parties a week for little girls and now they are all grown up into beautiful teenagers!   I knew I was going to like working with the whole family when I saw her brother’s cool “Chucks”….got to love those shoes.  Anyway, this was one of the first families to participate in our fundraiser for Laguna Hills High School.  I am so excited to work with all of the familes and share all of the unique images!  Enjoy!

Smart Kids Who Play shoot: Laguna Beach Children’s commercial photographer

Take lots of wind, and sunscreen and sand and you get a pretty wild photography session!  Especially when it is after a BIG rain storm that left the beach covered in seaweed.  Oh well, the kids are adorable and the props and styling are done by my good friend Rashae Taylor, who is geting ready to launch the most fabulous Vintage Rental company!  The session was for my gal Jennifer Taylor’s amazing line of Chemical Free sunscreens and skin care, Smart Girls Who Surf (definitely click to check out her website).  Thanks to all involved!  My favorite one has to be baby Jensen working her little heart out to get sunscreen ALL OVER HER BODY!  Enjoy!
